For the record, Neanderthals are named for the Neander* valley (Neander-tal) between Dusseldorf and Wuppertal (Wupper valley). German viewers may take notice of this linguistic point. This is a really good series!

Trace ..... this series is so exciting!!! What’s next in relation to series??? Just a thought...Graham Hancock and his views on the pyramids and earlier humans????

Trace being so excited about this made me so exited.

I attended a talk once about how sweating is what makes us human. If I remember correctly, the researcher's theory was that sweating gave us the endurance to run for longer periods of time than others.

Ego. Ego makes us human, the want to be special and unique makes us human, its also what divides us.

Loving this series already, I'm excited for the next 4 parts! Also, had me cracking up @6:20 with "We are a Petri dish of Ancient Hump sessions." 🤣 I might want that one on a tee-shirt or something.

How can this channel have so few subs?!?!?!? You're great, keep it up!

Trace has a good transition into ads because I legit thought it was part of the video 😂😂

I’ve been super busy so it took me a while to get through this one, but I’m looking forward to watching the rest of the series! Trace, I noticed that when you said something about the larynx not fossilizing well, your voice sounded just like Jack Nicholson’s... LOL Seriously, go back & listen! Also, I meant to say this a while back - I love the very 80s graphics you use, like the pink & yellow lines... brings me back to my childhood. 😄 I also noticed that you moved whatever thingy you have to press every so often from the spot off to your right, to more in front of you. Thank you, it’s less distracting that way. Anyway, about the actual subject matter - very interesting stuff, & as always, your enthusiasm makes it even better! Off to start video #2 now. Keep up the great work! 👍🏻

I know it's arbitrary, but I'm not sure if any other species makes tools for entertainment. Other species use tools, and other species will play with things, but I don't know of any other species that spends time and resources to create tools specifically for play and no other purpose. We're also the only ones to have organized play with teams, and rules and agreements, but that also comes down to communication, and who knows if we got that from our ancient friends.

@TraceDominguez

Interesting idea! Tool use PURPOSE isn't something I'd considered. Chimps and other animals do have fun for the sake of fun, not just for learning -- but of course, all our games (and our rules and everything) were designed not just to fill the time, but to teach (ethics, physical prowess, and sportsmanship [which is really just community and social skills in disguise]). So maybe our play tools are not for "no other purpose" but rather "for a somewhat more abstract purpose" ? just a thought

@@TraceDominguez Very true. Enhancing Dexterity, Developing a deeper communal understanding and culture, Games and play are huge parts of our culture as humans, and I think figuring out the first games we played might help teach us a lot about the culture that those people grew up in. I have a feeling it probably started as races, tag, Hide&Seek, but I wonder what the first "Game Tool" was. I know we have ancient sheep kucklebones that were used as dice. And when I said no other purpose, I mostly meant the 4 F's. While they definitely can enhance our abilities or prospects in those areas, I think it's a level of forethought, organization, communication, and communal understanding that we don't see elsewhere. (That I know of so far... MRIN, As always) As far as I know animals will use tools to gather food, or build a shelter, or attract mates, but I think complex play requires a more advanced theory of mind.

Just found your channel after remembering some of the old dnews vids, awesome to see you’re still making content!! Subbed 👊👊

Hey Trace. Have you tought of a podcast or audio only version of your videos?

Is that the new D News? I loved it and I am sad you stopped it for seeker. The talk style is way better.

See, that's a common confusion. Neanderthal is not the name of the valley, the valley is really Neanderthal's monster.
